SilverNBlackFan Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Most likely just here to be a camp arm and help others learn Grudens lingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver&Black88 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Smh. We better try to find a real backup. No way in hell we can go into the season with just him and Cook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also is Oakland born and raised. But I bet the QB selected will be a low pick (6th rd-ish) and Johnson will still be the #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaiderX Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Gruden granting his wish I'm guessing. Hasn't even played in 4 years. Make Marshawn happy too. EJ Manuel should be resigned tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Johnson is the #2, that is a massive fail on two fronts. 1) Means Cook is cooked. 2) Means they didn't add anyone better. Carr has missed games the last 2 seasons. You can't expect John Johnson to fill that role. My guess... the backup QB isn't on the roster at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't necessarily mean Cook is cooked if he isn't judged to be as good an option as Johnson, who knows Gruden and his style and is a vet. Plus the FA crop of QB isn't promising. You can make cases for guys like Geno Smith or Blaine Gabbert but it's not a wide margin when scheme and style familiarity are considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a backup, he'd offer a change up to Carr's skillset and have trade value to team who needs a starter. Also.... if Al Davis was here, Kaep would be a Raider. There is zero doubt in my mind. Davis was the anti-NFL Believed in these type players. I truly miss owners who don't cower to the NFL's leadership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think SOME teams reluctance has less to do with NFL leadership and more to do with distractions. I'm also VERY glad we aren't basing personal decisions on what Al would do.
